"Float among crystalline skies in a cloudbed handspun of the softest cotton tufts."

"A trip aboard our time machine wouldn't be complete without revisiting the first Psychoterratica fragrance, formerly known as Psychoterratica I.

I think the name OPALINE is perfect for this fragrance. There is a chalky-white quality, with glowing cool blue tones, muted pinks, powder yellows and milky greens.

Prepare to fall into the softest, most angelic cloudbed with endless textural swells. The initial inspiration for OPALINE was the idea of cotton and yarn being prepared and spun in a mill before being made into the softest garment. I find that OPALINE is also a great layering tool: adding texture to many different perfumes or harmonising with more neutral scented cosmetic products for those in a more minimal mood.  

It is a very pure-smelling perfume; lots of musk, powder and musky powdery botanicals. However, don’t be fooled – OPALINE is strong and extremely long-lasting. I find that the fragrance spans a lot of the aromatic spectrum: it may appear one-dimensional at first, but allow it a minute or two, and the kaleidoscopic twists and turns will start to come into focus."
